Angels! roll the rock away
1
Angels! roll the rock away;Death! yield up thy mighty prey;See! the Saviour leaves the tomb,Glowing with immortal bloom.
2
Hark! the wondering angels raiseLouder notes of joyful praise;Let the earth's remotest boundEcho with the blissful sound.
3
Saints on earth lift up your eyes;Now to glory see him riseIn long triumph through the sky,Up to waiting worlds on high.
4
Heaven unfolds its portals wide!Mighty Conqueror! through them ride;King of glory! mount thy throne,Boundless empire is thine own.
